"And you will. Don't forget to get some sleep. I'll talk to you tomorrow." he waved and hopped out of the window. After landing softly on the fire escape he walked down the stairs and blending into the darkness below.

Elijah was back at his apartment, sitting on the couch in the main room as he was scrolling through his phone. He absentmindedly was petting his cat as it laid on his lap and purred. He had gotten ready for the day earlier and was waiting for Allen to stop by so they can head off to laser tag.

Allen had just come from the gym. He had invested in it and ever since had kept the membership. It was a good place to go and work out, but it also had showers, water, and even vending machines. Over all, it was good if you were looking for a place with free water and a warm place to be. He shook out his slightly damp hair and made his way to Elijahs building. At this point he had just gotten used to climbing the fire escape. The stairs or elevator were simply too slow. He landed on Elijahs small patio outside the door.

Elijah looked away from his phone and over to the window when he rd footsteps out on the patio. He smiled when he saw that it was Allen. "It's open." he called out to him, referring to the sliding glass door that led out to the patio. He assumed that Allen would come in that way because he never seemed to use the actual front door to his apartment. He would go over and open the door for him and invite him in but hr didn't want to disturb that cat on his lap.

Allen pulled the door open "Good morning." he sang. It wasn't that early, but he slept in. He walked over and patted the cat on the head "You ready to win?" he asked, looking to Elijah.

"Morning." Mordecai said to him then set his phone aside as Allen made his way over to him. "I am so ready to win." he said with a smile then looked down at the cat. "I have to get up buddy." he said then held the cat in his arms as he stood up then placed the cat back down where he was sitting.

"Good, cause I play to win. Having fun comes in second." he joked "There shouldn't be too many people there at this time, but you never know. I just hope there are some people who can match our skill." he was pretty good at the game. Being a vampire was kind of cheating, but he wouldn't bring it up and no one else knew.

"Well it's getting closer to the afternoon so there should be some people there." Elijah said then picked up his phone and slipped it in his pocket before going over to the door and putting on his shoes. He put on his jacket and grabbed his wallet and keys before turning to Allen. "Alright, I'm ready to go." he said to him.

Allen was ready to go as well. He followed Elijah out of the apartment and down the stairs. This time he didn't jump out of the place via the fire escape. They left and Allen got a weird look from the front desk lady, but she seemed to remember him from last night and probably just assumed he had spent the night.

Elijah made his way out of the apartment building and waved to the lady behind the desk, just to reassure her that everything was normal. He then started to make his way to the place that had laser tag. "I'm excited, laser tag is so fun." he said as he glanced over at Allen.

"It's great." Allen agreed "I've played a couple times, and winning is a big motivator, so i'd say I got pretty good at it. Before we go you wanna stop and get some lunch? Or we can go after." it was nearing midday and the time for lunch was arriving. Allen had slept in pretty late so he had had a cup of coffee only an hour or two ago. But Elijah could be hungry for all he knew, and they had to be playing their best.

Elijah looked to him and shook his head. "No, not now. I had some food earlier so I'm not really hungry, but I'll definitely be hungry after laser tag." he said to him with a smile as he continued to walk. If they are playing to win he will tire himself out and will need a nice meal afterwards.

Allen nodded and dropped the topic. The walk to he laser tag area. To get there they had to take a quick bus ride.

Elijah made his way to the bus stop and got on when the bus arrived. It wasn't long until they made it to where the laser tag place was and Elijah made his way off the bus. He walked the short distance to the laser tag place and made his way inside. He glanced around with a smile on his face, he was so excited to play some laser tag.

The teen at the front desk seemed chipper and she told them how it would work. They could but one game for 8 dollars, or they could buy two for only a couple more dollars. Allen was all for buying two. Next she had them put in nicknames, then she gave them a card. "Please wait until the game we have going now is finished. It should only last maybe ten minutes more at most."

Elijah smiled as he listened to the teen behind the desk. He put in a nickname when he was told to then looked to Allen. "So what should we do for ten minutes before the laser tag match?" he asked him.

"Hmmm, well they have some mini shooting games in the game room. Plus some other ones but everyone goes there for the shooting ones. Or I guess we could go buy some diet drinks from the vending machines." that last bit was added a bit sarcastically. A lot of vending machines these days had been switched to diet drink and 'healthy' snacks. He though it was hilarious, but at the same time it made him irritated cause he remembered the good ol' days when it wasn't like that.

"I'm good with not having any diet drinks, I think they all taste gross and have a bad aftertaste." Elijah said to him then started to make his way to the game room. "Let's play some of the shooting games, it will give us some practice before laser tag."

"I'm all for that. The only diet drinks I can stand are those Dr Pepper Tens. And those are rare to find in vending machines." he followed Elijah to the game room. It was a small dark room with multiple old style games. There was a machine to their left as they stepped in that would take your money and convert it to coins that you could play the games with.

Elijah went up to the coin machine and and turned a few dollars into the arcade coins. "So where is that shooting game you were talking about?" he asked him as he glanced around the game room.

"It's over here." he walked a couple steps around a claw game and gestured to an older looking machine. It was space themed. "It's kinda lame really, but I used to love it when this place first started up. And I guess I still do. The graphics are terrible, but shooting down aliens in any form can be fun."

Elijah followed Allen over to the old machine, and smiled slightly as he looked over the space themed game. "Well it looks and sounds like fun. So how do we play?" he asked as he glanced over at Allen.

Allen grinned. He was happy Elijah was at least interested. He stuck some coins in and the game jumped to life. "Basically all you have to do it shoot down the ships and you can't let them pass your screen. It's a team game so we both have to play well for it to work." he handed Elijah one of the tacky plastic guns.

Post by anormallife on Mar 8, 2017 13:17:17 GMT -5
"Sounds simple enough." Elijah said as he took the plastic gun from Allen and looked to the game screen. He pointed the gun at the screen then waited for the game to start up.
